Bank Muscat, the leading financial services provider in the Sultanate of Oman, continues to build on their commitment to community engagement, taking part in initiatives that matter to families across Oman. This was reflected once again in the strong turnout of customers and visitors at the “Back to School” event, held recently at Muscat City Centre, where children took part alongside their parents in a series of engaging activities.
The event was held to celebrate the start of the new academic year with children, drawing wide participation from young visitors. A variety of entertainment activities, competitions and games were organised throughout the event, including dedicated Math and Science activities, while a range of gifts were distributed to participants.

Designed specifically to help families cover the cost of private school fees, professional certifications and summer courses, Shahadati reflects the Bank’s continued commitment to supporting customers and easing their children’s educational journey.
On the Islamic banking front, visitors had the opportunity to explore Meethaq’s Sharia’a-compliant products and services, including children’s savings accounts and savings plans designed to help customers plan towards achieving their financial goals related to education and other objectives for achieving financial freedom.
